Nevada PTA Legislative Priorities
National PTA Key Legislation
Nevada's students get 30% less educational funding than the national average and rank 48th in per pupil funding. Nevada schools deserve at least the national average in per pupil funding.
The newly created Nevada Commission on School Funding agrees that the national average is a reliable target to achieve appropriate class sizes, offer students the critical resources they need to succeed, and ensure new K-12 revenue actually increases funding.
We must push lawmakers to move towards a fair per-pupil funding goal. It should not feel unattainable to free Nevada K-12 education from its recurring last-place ranking.
Signing the pledge lets lawmakers know we demand highly-efficient schools now. It also means you’ll be kept up-to-date on ways to get involved.
